Carney Family Newsletter for June

Enjoying summer

Talk about waiting until the last day of the month to get this newsletter out......made it by one day. Well, I am back in Michigan after a great trip to Kansas and now I am ready to let summer begin....for me and the whole family. I can see summer in my minds eye:
Sean and Mikey's face reflected in the light of the computer monitor
Allison, poolside
Emma at the coffee shop
Liam on the ballfield
John at a weekend party
and all hard at work at your jobs in summer or any season.

I want to thank Mike, Twin and the boys for their hospitality, all the good food, the trips to the museum and allowing me to use their vehicles so I could be out and about. The visit was a good one and I enjoyed Kansas as usual......especially the arboretum.





Happy 17th Birthday Emma!
 We all send best wishes your way!








New Theater 
 Looks comfy and the popcorn looks good as well.
Amy, where are your shoes?
 Allison ready for the movie



Liam
 Looks hot! 
 Hope that you have a good season, Liam




Party!








Emma at 5th Grade Camp
 Emma was a counselor at the 5th grade camp and these were all her girls....looks like fun. Doesn't seem too long ago that Emma went to camp.




Kansas

 Saki
 Mike and I at the art museum
 Having coffee in the courtyard at the museum

 Twin showing off this beautiful car which isn't hers but she got to drive it for a few days. Looks good on you Twin!
My favorite photo that I took while I was in Kansas....at the arboretum.  Getting it enlarged to a 11x14

Photo explaination:
You may have noticed that some pictures are small or the quality is poor. That is because they were taken with a cell phone and are a small file. They just don't enlarge well.
I get photos however I can......from Instagram or Facebook or some kind person (thanks Heather) sends them to me. Anyway, anything to get the family news out.
Feel free to send pictures
Until next month....watch this space.

Carney Family Newsletter for May

Thought for June   "Stay in touch"



It is summer...yea! My garden is a thing of beauty.
Reality check.....next school year Allison and Emma will be Seniors!
                      ....next school year Mikey and Liam will start High School!
Can't believe it..... time seems to pass so quickly. John is 20, really? .
Looking forward to hearing all that is planned for the school year ahead.  Enjoy your summer everyone.
I can't wait for my trip to Kansas next month. I really miss everyone because I haven't seen them since November 2014. I plan to have plenty of photos to share.




Happy Memorial Day to all.
Honor those who served





Happy Birthday Tim

Attracting Visitors
 I am happy to report that I have finally had Hummingbirds at my feeder! Many years of trying with very little success....all it took was a new Hummingbird feeder.
Also have lots of Finches in the yard...Goldfinches and House Finches, also a nesting pair of House Wrens. Have also seen a group of Chickadees bathing and a Nuthatch on my Birch tree. It's all happening here in my backyard!


 Please send me any news and photos that you might have for the June newsletter.
Until next month...
